Abstract:
This term paper aims to explore the relevance of the Cooperative Principle and its maxims in modern-day communication, as well as to investigate their theoretical basis and practical application.

influential paper “Logic and Conversation.” The paper also consider the contributions of other linguists and communication scholars who have further developed and applied Grice’s theory.
